ABOUT GOvERNESSES.
American Mammas Do Not Treat Them
Well Nor Pay Them Well.
From. Hqrper's Bazaar.

From Hdrper's Bdzor.
What is to be the future of the governess
in America? She will never, as in England
belong to permanent class, because thsre
are no permanent classes in this country,
tried by the English standard; that is, per-
manence of social position in a family is
here the exception and there the rule.
Moreover, the greater prevalence of city
and town life in the well-to-do-classes and
the greater popularity of schools as com
pared with home training, give an enormous
outlet for those of our young people who
wish to teach, so that educated girls are
not obliged, as in England, to look to the
position of governess as their main re-
source.
The vast increase in the number of young
women employed as clerks, bookkeepers,
typewriters, ETC., depletes still further the
ranks of applicants. And yet, despite all
this, the increase of numbers and wealth
introduces more and more governesseS into
families. Sometimes they are especially
needed through illness of the parent, some
times because of country life, sometimes by
reason of some popularity in the pupil, and
often as a mere bit of social ambition. Our
more democratic way of living makes their
position in some ways more agreeable here
than elsewhere, but also in some ways hard
er; if they are less sharply Disseminated
from the family they are also less discrimi-
mated from the household servants; and on
the whole, their status is at present rather
anomalous and ill-defned.
| knew of a governess in New York
family who lived absolutely alone in her
rooms, except for the society of the child
rem. She had all her meals sent to her and
never entered the drawing groom unless called
for. On the other hand. she was no more
allowed to go below her position than to
step above it, and her employer once re-
proved her quite severely for putting on a
child's overshoes saying that this was the
nurses business and she should have been
summoned to do it. There is something al
most inhuman in this castiron etiquette, but
it must be remembered that it has its uses
like all rigid custom. If it represses the
victim it also defends her and saves her
from that jealousy on the part of cooks and
chambermads which is the worst annoyance
of the American governess at the present
stage of the institution.
II is curious fact that instead of rising
steadily, like the wages of the kitchen, the
compensation of the American governess
has probably been reduced within the last
twenty or thirty years.

GERMANY AND THE POPE.
DEBATE ON THE ECCLESIASTICAL BILL

PRINCE BIsMARCK's oMINoUs woRDs-HERI RICH
TER's BITTER OPPOSITION.
BERLIN, April 21.-The debate the Ecclesias-
tica bill begun in the Lower House OF the Prus
sian Diet to-day. Dr. Wndthorst the Clerical leader.
declared that the Centre party would submit to the
Popes wishes and would vote for the bill it passed
the Upper House and without offering any OF the
amendments which the Centre had intended to pro-
pose necessary to make the bill entirely acceptable
to the Catholics of Germany. The Centre party, Dr.
Wndthorst added, would renew the fight against the
Government If at any time Catholic interests were
affected.
Prince Bismarck declared that if the bill was
jected he would abandon his office President OF the
Ministry OF State for Prussia and devote his entire
time to the service of the Empire. AS perhaps he
said hard external and internal struggle against
the revolutionary party is imminent desire hrst to
settle all unnecessary internal disputes.
Herr Richter condemned the bill because, he said
the provisions regarding the right of confirmation and
protest by the State ecclesiastical appointments
would promote servility. He protested against the
action Of the Pope in interfering the elections for
membership in the Reichstag.
Prince Bismarck declared that Herr Richter was
moie Catholic than the Pope and added:

Prince Bismarck then appealed to the members OF the
national parties to reject the bill He declared that
considerable portion of his influence in Europe rested
on the confidence manifested in his political no ncsy and
trustworthness by the representatives Of the German
people.
Professor virchOw opposed the bill as cnd
